About

Hi! I’m Darla, an illustrator and comic artist living in Colorado. My work focuses on the small moments of everyday life and typically features cute animals and friendly faces. I work with traditional and digital mediums, opting for gouache, watercolor, and colored pencils when working traditionally and choosing similar effects when working in Photoshop. I aim to create art that will bring you a small moment of joy or nostalgia.

When I’m not in my studio, you can find me taking long walks, playing videogames, or trying new food with my husband.
